In a previous post, I mentioned that inflammation is one ofthe primary reasons for symptoms in the chronically ill. By reducing itseffects, you can feel a million times better than when pro-inflammatorycytokines are running rampant through your body. ? Inflammation is caused by many things. In the Lyme diseasesufferer, neurotoxins as a result of infections, as well as starchy and sugaryfoods, are two important culprits. Recently, I read an article by Dr. Loyd, a PhD nutritionist and founderof Health Balances in Seattle,W.A., which provided me with some fantastic new insights into loweringinflammation and in removing two of its causes--neurotoxins and the wrong kindsof food. ? Let's start first with the food. Yes, diet in Lyme diseaseis a big deal if you want to reduce inflammation and heal. Simple sugars, aswell as starches, and in particular, the polysaccharide amylose, causeinflammation. Stay away from grains,root vegetables, dairy products, and high-glycemic foods, including fruits.If you really want to play it safe, don't eat any fruit except for wildberries. Make non-starchy veggies and animal protein the principal componentsof your diet. Second, get your hands on a good toxin binder. While cholestyramine, a cholesterol-loweringdrug, has been advocated by some LLMD's for treating those with impaired detoxification ability, (becauseit is a powerful toxin binder), it can also cause undesirable side effects,such as constipation, bloating and other digestive problems. Dr. Loyd advocatescholestepure as a good alternativeto cholestyramine. Cholestepure is a natural product made from plant sterolsand can be purchased at Health Balances. He also uses peach tree extract, which he claims is the best substance he hasfound for removing mold toxins, which are often just as much a cause ofsymptoms in a Lyme disease sufferer as other toxins! Treating mold and removingmold toxins, as both Loyd and Shoemaker would agree, is vital for a fullrecovery from Lyme disease. Paradoxically, however, cholestyramine can exacerbate inflammation in Lymedisease sufferers, so if you opt to take this toxin-binder, you may also needto add an anti-inflammatory to the mix. (And this may be a good idea, anyway,since taking a toxin-binder is likely to only partially remedy the inflammationproblem). Dr. Shoemaker prescribes Actos, another medication, to reduceinflammation, but Dr. Loyd notes that Actoscan exacerbate symptoms in those who are underweight or have low leptinlevels. A better choice, writes Loyd, would be one of the following products: UltraInflamX, Kaprex, KaprexAI,BioticsKappArrest. Those products containing the acronym, " Kapp " in their title inhibit NF-kappaB, a messenger that causes the release ofinflammatory cytokines, and are safe, natural alternatives to Actos. In summary, reducing inflammation and healing from Lyme disease (and itsaccompanying infections, especially mold) can be accelerated by taking threeimportant steps: ? 1) Binding andremoving mold and other toxins with powerful toxin binders such as cholestepure and peachtree extract, ? 2)taking ananti-inflammatory such as UltraInflamX, Kaprex or BioticsKappArrest, and ? 3) sticking to a non-amylose,low glycemic and low starch diet. ? Yes, you can also go with Dr. Shoemaker's protocol and trycholestyramine and Actos, but if you prefer to use only natural substances,which are likely to have fewer side effects, then you may want to try Dr. Loyd'ssuggestions. In previous posts, I have written about other natural anti-inflammatories andtoxin binders that can be used in the treatment of Lyme disease; thosementioned here are an addition to these and may be of special interest to thosewith impaireddetoxification mechanisms, as well as for those who believe that moldis a significant contributing factor to their illness. Finally, Loyd notes that the process of detoxificationcan be significantly accelerated through the use of Japanese foot detox patches and a homemade (yes, you heard right!) foot detox bath, using two separatetubs (one for each foot),a couple of batteries, spoons and some wiring. Loydwrites that these homemade foot baths, which cost a fraction of commercialionic foot baths, can be made at home and are actually more effective thantheir pricey counterparts! For more information on how to make this foot bath,check out: www.royalrife.com/mold_toxins.pdf? . As well, you will find at this site a morein-depth explanation of the effects of inflammation upon the body, as well ashow the above-mentioned toxin binders and anti-inflammatory products help toheal the body. ?
